Mic Check - a year in review

"Hello? Is this thing on?"

What's up friends? I'm embarrassed at my blogging capabilities (or lack thereof). It has been over a month and a half since my last entry. It has been reported that the blogosphere has fallen into a deep state of depression due to my prolonged absence. Well folks I'm back. Not with new years resolutions (because I don't do resolutions I just do stuff), but some reflections on 2010. The past year, quite frankly, was a blur. It was like I went to bed January 1, 2010 and woke up on January 1, 2011. Here are some notable things that happened in the year 2010:

• I was admitted into graduate school (VA Tech & IU)
• Quit my first professional job at Baylor
• Moved to the midwest in an awesome three day trip (shots out to Matt Fulmer and the Henkelmanz)
• Participated in my first Habitat House Build
• My brother Jason got married (and I missed the wedding)
• Threw an impromptu bachelor party for Jason (with the four brothers)
• Spent several hours in the Stay Wired Coffee/Computer Repair Shop
• Experienced an epiphany in an old kitchen on 309 South Jackson Street, in Montgomery, Alabama  
• Watched my best friend and his family move away to Asia
• Attended ASHE for the first time and realized that becoming a scholar is within my reach
• Played in the snow in both TX and IN
• Made new friends in Indiana (Carl, Tomika, Eric and Teanna)
• Discovered I have the best girlfriend in the world

These are just a couple of the major and minor happpenings in 2010. I can't wait to see what's in store for 2011.
